What is the First Stage of Diabetes?

What exactly is Prediabetes?💀

The first stage of diabetes is known as prediabetes. It is a metabolic “yellow light”, a warning from your body that your blood sugar levels are higher than they should be, but haven’t yet reached the threshold for a Type 2 diabetes diagnosis.

How do I know if I have Prediabetes?Prediabetes is often a “silent” condition because it frequently has no clear symptoms. However, some subtle warning signs can include:

Darkened skin patches (Acanthosis nigricans) on the neck, armpits and or groin.
Increased thirst and frequent urination.
Unexplained fatigue and blurred vision.

Doctors typically diagnose Prediabetes using an HbA1C test, where a result between 5.7% and 6.4% indicates prediabetes.Can I actually reverse Prediabetes?🤔Yes! Unlike type 2 diabetes, which is often managed for life, prediabetes can frequently be reversed. By making lifestyle shifts now, you can restore normal blood sugar levels and significantly prevent the onset of diabetes.

CONCLUSION

Prediabetes doesn’t have to be your “after” picture. It’s your chance to rewrite the script for your health.
